Leaking macros across headers is a terrible thing, but I can't think of
a better way of achieving this.
- We need some way of modifying debug macros from CMake to implement
ENABLE_ALL_THE_DEBUG_MACROS.
- We need some way of modifying debug macros in specific source files
because otherwise we need to rebuild too many files.
This was done using the following script:
sed -i -E 's/#cmakedefine01 ([A-Z0-9_]+)/#ifndef \1\n\0\n#endif\n/' AK/Debug.h.in
sed -i -E 's/#cmakedefine01 ([A-Z0-9_]+)/#ifndef \1\n\0\n#endif\n/' Kernel/Debug.h.in
There's no need for this to be generic and support running from an
arbitrary thread context. Perf events are always generated from within
the thread being profiled, so take advantage of that to simplify the
code. Also use Vector capacity to avoid heap allocations.
We were checking for size_t (unsigned) overflow but the current offset
is actually stored as off_t (signed). Fix this, and also fail with
EOVERFLOW correctly.
This change can be actually seen as two logical changes, the first
change is about to ensure we only read the ATA Status register only
once, because if we read it multiple times, we acknowledge interrupts
unintentionally. To solve this issue, we always use the alternate Status
register and only read the original status register in the IRQ handler.
The second change is how we handle interrupts - if we use DMA, we can
just complete the request and return from the IRQ handler. For PIO mode,
it's more complicated. For PIO write operation, after setting the ATA
registers, we send out the data to IO port, and wait for an interrupt.
For PIO read operation, we set the ATA registers, and wait for an
interrupt to fire, then we just read from the data IO port.
This patch adds sys$msyscall() which is loosely based on an OpenBSD
mechanism for preventing syscalls from non-blessed memory regions.
It works similarly to pledge and unveil, you can call it as many
times as you like, and when you're finished, you call it with a null
pointer and it will stop accepting new regions from then on.
If a syscall later happens and doesn't originate from one of the
previously blessed regions, the kernel will simply crash the process.
We had two ways of creating a new Ext2FS inode. Either they were empty,
or they started with some pre-allocated size.
In practice, the pre-sizing code path was only used for new directories
and it didn't actually improve anything as far as I can tell.
This patch simplifies inode creation by simply always allocating empty
inodes. Block allocation and block list generation now always happens
on the same code path.
This prevented from dmidecode to get the right PAGE_SIZE when using the
sysconf syscall.
I found this bug, when I tried to figure why dmidecode fails to mmap
/dev/mem when I passed --no-procfs, and the conclusion is that it tried
to mmap unaligned physical address 0xf5ae0 (SMBIOS data), and that was
caused by a wrong value returned after using the sysconf syscall to get
the plaform page size, therefore, allowing to send an unaligned address
to the mmap syscall.
Because it was 'static const' and also shared with userland programs,
the default keymap was defined in multiple places. This commit should
save several kilobytes! :^)
The enumeration code is already enumerating all buses, recursively
enumerating bridges (which are buses) makes devices on bridges being
enumerated multiple times. Also, the PCI code was incorrectly mixing up
terminology; let's settle down on bus, device and function because ever
since PCIe came along "slots" isn't really a thing anymore.
We had an exception that allowed SOL_SOCKET + SO_PEERCRED on local
socket to support LibIPC's PID exchange mechanism. This is no longer
needed so let's just remove the exception.
It's useful for programs to change their thread names to say something
interesting about what they are working on. Let's not require "thread"
for this since single-threaded programs may want to do it without
pledging "thread".
This used to be in Kernel/, next to the build-root-filesystem.sh script,
which was then moved to Meta/ during the transition to CMake but has the
working directory set to Build/, effectively expecting it there - which
seems silly.
TL;DR: Very confusing. Use an explicit path relative to SERENITY_ROOT
instead and update the .gitignore files.
This replaces the current disk detection and disk access code with
code based on https://wiki.osdev.org/IDE
This allows the system to boot on VirtualBox with serial debugging
enabled and VMWare Player.
I believe there were several issues with the current code:
- It didn't utilise the last 8 bits of the LBA in 24-bit mode.
- {read,write}_sectors_with_dma was not setting the obsolete bits,
which according to OSdev wiki aren't used but should be set.
- The PIO and DMA methods were using slightly different copy
and pasted access code, which is now put into a single
function called "ata_access"
- PIO mode doesn't work. This doesn't fix that and should
be looked into in the future.
- The detection code was not checking for ATA/ATAPI.
- The detection code accidentally had cyls/heads/spt as 8-bit,
when they're 16-bit.
- The capabilities of the device were not considered. This is now
brought in and is currently used to check if the device supports
LBA. If not, use CHS.
This prevents sys$mmap() and sys$mprotect() from creating executable
memory mappings in pledged programs that don't have this promise.
Note that the dynamic loader runs before pledging happens, so it's
unaffected by this.
The random address proposals were not checked with the size so it was
increasely likely to try to allocate outside of available space with
larger and larger sizes.
Now they will be ignored instead of triggering a Kernel assertion
failure.
This is a continuation of: c8e7baf4b8
This adds another layer of defense against introducing new code into a
running process. The only permitted way of doing so is by mmapping an
open file with PROT_READ | PROT_EXEC.
This does make any future JIT implementations slightly more complicated
but I think it's a worthwhile trade-off at this point. :^)
This patch adds enforcement of two new rules:
- Memory that was previously writable cannot become executable
- Memory that was previously executable cannot become writable
Unfortunately we have to make an exception for text relocations in the
dynamic loader. Since those necessitate writing into a private copy
of library code, we allow programs to transition from RW to RX under
very specific conditions. See the implementation of sys$mprotect()'s
should_make_executable_exception_for_dynamic_loader() for details.
When mounting an Ext2FS, a block device source is required. All other
filesystem types are unaffected, as most of them ignore the source file
descriptor anyway.
Fixes#5153.
`allocate_randomized` assert an already sanitized size but `mmap` were
just forwarding whatever the process asked so it was possible to
trigger a kernel panic from an unpriviliged process just by asking some
randomly placed memory and a size non alligned with the page size.
This fixes this issue by rounding up to the next page size before
calling `allocate_randomized`.
Fixes#5149
